I am not so sure about the water based paints.
Any of you seen a 90s Chrysler or GM with an otherwise nice paint job that has sections that are flaking? - waterbased paint. I am sure the technology has improved but how much?
I considered Auto Air Colors for awhile for a 66 short I had. They are supposed to spray wonderful. They also are supposed to blend excellently. Street Rodder did a review on them some years ago and they were VERY impressed. That doesn't tell you how they hold up though.

Here's a link to a photo of my paint job using rattle can tractor paint from the local Cal Ranch supply. Worked great and held up great for the 3-4 years I drove it. The red was the factory paint I just painted the flame job over top.

Dang, that's a nice crew cab!! I've got a new Superduty Crew Cab, be nice to have slick to match it for the hell of it.
I plan on painting my Unibody, I have a paint gun and compressor now and I plan on using the flat or satin black paint over PPG primer sealer. At least for the first go round, might pay somone to give it a nice paint job later in life after I get the 347 stroker built for it. Dreams and more Dreams. First it's body work, and IFS.
